Null's music taste / music for Null

Someone's probably already posted this for pizza day but:
 
Has null used this one? Its like the perfect for a jim sterling stream.I downloaded some new music, Im vibing, Im digging it, then Jim Sterling comes on and hes telling me hes my real mommy and hes taking my puppy dog away to the place where they can give him the medicine to make him all better but Ill never see him again.
 
Since @Null likes instrumental intros for MATI streams, here's some boomer music instrumentals from before his time. He has an eclectic taste so I've just tried to order them from more acoustic to more electric.









 
Tubular Bells sticks out as one I've already heard before. Tubular Bells 1, 2, and 3 are great albums to listen in their entirety while working. If I ever have a proper living space, I intend on buying a lot of tracks on vinyl so I can enjoy music once the bombs fall.

I look forward to your wasteland radio station. Slobberdog > ThreeDog.

Have you listened to his other good album, Ommadawn? A little less instrumental focused, but still good stuff.
 
If you like Tubular Bells I'd recommend any of John Carpenter's music but particularly his Lost Themes 1-3 albums, they have pretty similar sounds. Nervous Curtains, courtesy of a Red Letter Media episode, is also fairly similar.

While the Alcest track was probably a byuu shitpost, if anyone likes that kind of music I'd recommend Pallbearer and Crypt Sermon for vaguely similar sounds

For indie stuff, The Silent Comedy sounds similar to a few things in here and Dark Souls (1?) used their Bartholomew for ads. Brand New also has some songs with similar vibes, provided you ignore their first album, but is generally closer to Emo. Everything after their first album is pretty good if you like that sound.

There's a decent amount of blusey/southern inspired stuff here as well. On the heavier side of that I'd recommend '68 who has the former lead of The Chariot and Norma Jean, The Devil and the Almighty Blues, and Fall of An Empire. The latter two lean more towards a vaguely Black Sabbath sound, and if you're looking for some something even more like that Witchcraft is a pretty good fit. '68 is more along the metalcore/mathcore line (if you didn't guess from the bands the guy was in before) and anyone who likes that genre I'd recommend the usual ones: Botch, Converge, and The Dillinger Escape Plan as well as Every Time I Die.

Unrelated to anything else in this thread I'll throw out Uncle Acid & the Deadbeats, which is something slightly similar to Sabbath again, and Tombstunner a band out of Grand Rapids that I like the weird synthetic effect they've done on the vocals. The video is pure midwest hillbilly too, you get that for free.

What is are glorious leaders thoughts on metal
 
We bring you good news by word of mouth, good news of cattle and corn, sure as the Sun come up from the south, by oak and ash and thorn
 
I already know of Null’s open distaste for modern rap music, but this 1996 song from A Tribe Called Quest sounds like good background noise to do some programming over:

 
I've similar varied but mostly anti-modern music tastes to null, it seems, and I've found a few to add to my library from this thread and MATI. I really like this song by Brand New, who were mentioned once before in this thread but not this song. I like most of the album honestly but 137 is good.

And they also have the accidentally based Desert, which you can only assume was meant to be a whiny anti religious pro gay song but after what we've seen over the past decade it's hard to find the lyrics themselves objectionable, they sound downright reasonable.
 
Kossoy sisters are great. They always give me chills.



You may recognize this one from o brother where art thou.


Encore:


Addendum: not the Kossoy sisters but a great song nonetheless.


Adding this one so I don’t have to double post. Johnny cook said his grandmother used to make him lay down on the kitchen floor and sing after she put 5 pound flour bags on his chest when he was only 5. Whatever she did worked. I love this version of the song so much.


After you listen to that one, listen to this one. The Chris Chan of gospel music.
